21

Two plus one equals 3

 And that is how I kept up with our anniversary

I first heard your voice on November 21st of last year

 The next day we meet, watched a scary movie and had a beer

On the eve of Thanksgiving we stayed up all night

Talked about what could be And how the movie gave you fright

I still remember your smile full of glee.

 It was love at first site on November twenty three.

 Our hands touched and we later kissed. A month later we spent almost every day together

When I was away for more than two days You would say you couldn't help it but to miss me.

 Till the season to be jolly on the 21st of December

 Last minute shopping we did don't you remember?

 I "member" all the good times and forgot about our little fights

It was Christmas Eve and I'm sorry I couldn't be there.

 I spent the day with my family and the night alone.

 But all you had to do was pick up the phone.

I even put the Angel on your tree before I left

 I did see you the very next day to give you your gift.

I was (21) when I meet you and you were the same age too.

We were perfect for each other but I didn't have a clue.

Two plus one equals 3 Funny that happens to be my birth date

 It was January and you gave me the best birthday

 A man Could ever ask for to bad I didn't know

 You wouldn't let me return the favor.

On Valentines day I could say that I at least made you dinner.

As we sat next to candle light, watched a movie and drank grape juice

 I wish I could have been been more creative.

Now we're not speaking  for at least Three weeks

 Believe me when I say to you that these (21) days seems like an eternity

I just hope that your heart hasn't already left me.

 Till the day we speak again

Please remember that your new life has all ready begun

 And it will be up to you if you want me there on August twenty one.

If your heart has moved on I do understand. It's all part of growing up and me being a man.

This morning I went to Jazz class and our teacher told us that he might not come back to our school to teach next semester because he thinks that our music department is way to unorganized. I guess he's right but like one of my classmates told him. "So what you gonna run away from your problems?" He said yes because music his love and when it hurts him he runs. I knew he was mad so I didn't say anything. He has been a great mentor and so far the best music teacher I ever had to bad I'm about to graduate from community college and will pursue a career in a different major. He knows I was having a lot of problems in March and understands that I have a lot of things on my mind. His best advice was to think positive.

Well I went to school yesterday with a positive attitude and then he bust out with this shit. Then I go to his guitar class after Jazz and I could still tell that he was still mad. So I'm sitting there watching the time hoping I don't get a parking ticket because it has been over and hour since I left my car at the meter. So I put my textbook in my backpack and right before I put my guitar back in its hard case some girl ask me, "hey David what chord is this?" I look at her fingers and tell her that's not a chord you just have your finger on a F#.

As I turn around to get ready to leave my acoustic guitar slides off from the edge of the table where it was leaning and falls to the ground and it's neck breaks like Saddam. I stood in shock and my teacher tells me that he never seen one break in person. Then that girl tells me sorry and I tell her that it's not her fault it was just bad timing. Only thing holding the neck of the guitar were the strings. (Tear) But no I didn't cry I just put her back in the case and left her there like if it was her new casket.

So I go down stairs and then outside to drop off what's was left of my Ibanez back in the trunk of my car. So then I notice a little green envelope on my windshield. At this point all I could do is smirk and throw my backpack in the backseat. I go back to my teacher tell him that I wasn't going to go to class on Thursday. He says its ok and that I should stay home and keep safe on days like those. Then he told me to think positive and then I told him I was while I was holding a parking ticket in my hand.
